In the hobbit How does Bilbo plan to stop a war from starting? How well does it work?
Natali [406]

In "The Hobbit", by J.R.R Tolkien, in the later part of the book (or the third movie), the battle of the four armies, the humans under the leadership of Bard, and the Elvish soldiers under their king teamed up to drive Thorin & Co. into giving them their share of gold. However, as events transpire, the orcs under Bolg(?) invaded the mountains in an effort to defeat the rest of the races, prompting the people of the lake, the elves, and the dwarves to team up in the fight. Before the orcs arrived though, Bilbo was stuck with the dwarves in the mountain, and wishes for his home. To make all sides happy, he decided to steal the "Arkenstone" ( the stone that is precious to Thorin, and 'is his heart'), and give it to the humans and elves as a bargain for their share of gold. However, things do not happened as planned, as Bilbo is banished from the castle, and the orcs arrive, prompting the humans, elves, and dwarves, to fight together, in the battle of the three armies. So no, while Bilbo was able to somewhat stop the war between the dwarves and the humans & elves, he was not able to stop the larger war, the battle of the three forces combine vs the orcs.

Hope this helps

Which archetype does Boadicea, the queen of the Britons,<br> best represent?
Blababa [14]

Answer:

rebel

Explanation:

Boadicea, or better known as Boudicca, was the queen of a Celtic tribe in Britain called the Iceni. This queen was not happy with the Roman invasion and how the Romans were treating her people, as well as the other native people of Britain. Wanting to be free and to not obey to anyone's commands, Boadicea and her people rebelled. Even though the rebellion was not a success in the end, the Romans suffered heavily losses from the unexpected attacks. Also, Boadicea was seen as an example of a person that will not stand to be subjugated, but instead wanted to live freely, so she was the prime example of a rebellion. The story of Boadicea was kept through time, and even nowadays, some 2 millenniums after her rebellion, she is still an archetype for a rebel.

About suffering they were never wrong.
bonufazy [111]
The correct answer is B. While someone else is eating or opening a window or just walking dully along.

Suffering, in Auden's (and old masters') view, is not a drastic case of the human condition. Auden doesn't single it out to depict it in its tragic magnificence. He puts it in the context of ordinary lives of people who mind their own business. It happens in circumstances that are most trivial for those other people. It seems that everyone is either ignorant or indifferent to another person's suffering.
